Total Baseball

''Total Baseball'' (Latest Edition ISBN 1-894963-27-X, First Published 1989) is a baseball encyclopedia first compiled by John Thorn and Pete Palmer in 1989. The latest edition, published in 2004, is its eighth.〔 (''Total Baseball, Completely Revised and Updated: The Ultimate Baseball Encyclopedia'' ). "Amazon.com." Found under "Product Details." Retrieved on 2008-12-02〕 The encyclopedia contains seasonal and career statistics in numerous categories for every Major League player, as well as historical, opinion, and year-by-year essays.
== History ==
The idea for ''Total Baseball'' originated when two baseball statisticians and historians, Palmer and Thorn, realized that the current ''Baseball Encyclopedia'' endorsed by Major League Baseball contained numerous significant mistakes.〔 Schwarz, Alan. ''The Numbers Game : Baseball's Lifelong Fascination with Statistics''. New York: Thomas Dunne Books, 2004. 〕 These included miscalculations by earlier statisticians, typographic mistakes made by the original score keeper, and even "phantom" players who did not actually exist and were added to a box score incorrectly, Lou Proctor being a notable example. In addition, Thorn and Palmer took the liberty of correcting mistakes not commonly accepted by the baseball community, such as the apparent discovery that Ty Cobb actually garnered 4,189 hits, not 4,191, or that Walter Johnson in fact had 417 career wins, not 416. Thorn and Palmer also included new, sabermetric statics developed by statisticians like Bill James, such as runs created or total average. The first edition of ''Total Baseball'' sold 75,000 copies, and by its fourth edition, Major League Baseball endorsed it as its official encyclopedia.〔
